Octo Push Action
The Octo actions in Continua are a wrapper around the octo command line. If you're having trouble using any of the Octo actions, please refer to the Command Line Reference.
The Octo Push action pushes a package (.nupkg, .zip, .tar.gz, etc.) to the built-in NuGet repository in an Octopus Server.

Using
The Using drop down is populated with any property collector whose namespace matches the pattern defined by the Octo Push action. The pattern for this action is ^Octo.*
If you create a property collector for this action, make sure you select the Path Finder PlugIn type and give it a name that will match the pattern above in blue. Example names listed here, search the table's Plugin column for "Octo Push".
For more in-depth explanations on property collectors see Property Collectors.
Alternatively, you can select the Custom option from the Using drop down list and specify a path in the resulting input field that will be displayed. Please read Why it's a good idea to use a property collector before using this option.
